Hi all, I've searched the web for 3 hours now, without a result. Is there a simple and PERFORMANT way to blend two images (BufferedImages) in/over each other? I want to build up an alphablending-animation, which smoothly blends the old image out (alpha from 255 to 0) while the new is blended in (alpha from 0 to 255) ...
i found several alphablending algorithms but nowhere a simple example in java. 1. my first idea is to create dynamically a kind of result image. each pixel (color) of the result image is calculated via a simple equation. the problem is: i need the color palette as byte array ... 2. another idea is to render both images separately with an AlphaComposite. then the 2 resulting images have to be merged into one result images (addition). could anybody help me with a link or an example in java? are any other solutions for this common problem? thanks a lot.
